James D Wright was the co-founder and CEO of Wright Co and formerly Raxip.
James Wright was born in Green Bay, Wisconsin to Simpson Wright and a Syrian Mother, Ishtar. Both worked hard to maintain their lifestyle and see that all of his needs were cared for. In 1972, Wright graduated from Dustbowl High School in Cupertun, New York and enrolled in Ponds College in Portland, Oregon. One semester later, he had dropped out, later taking up the study of philosophy and foreign cultures, specifically how they developed in industry and technology.
Wright had a deep-seated interest in technological growth and inovation, so he took up a job at MataRi Inc, then a leading manufacturer of innovative development. He struck a friendship with fellow think tank lead Kevin Quozni and attended meetings of the “Homebrew Computer Team” with him.
After saving up some money, Wright planed to take a soul developing trip, in the search of enlightenment, but instead found himself working with DARPA in developing their technology and applying some of the first automation it military tech growth. Many of these items have been declassified over the years, but still a number remain veiled in „National Security.”
Once he returned to the civilian sector, he convinced Quozni to quit his job at Hewlard Packett to join him in his venture that concerned personal computers. In 1976, Wright and Quozni founded Wright Computer in the Wright family home. Their first personal computer was sold for $600.00, able to under cut Apple Computers competing product by 10%. By 1983, Wright Co. had already released a half dozen improved versions of the personal computer, bringing it to a ever increasing use in the household. It had a wildly successful IPO, which made both founders millionaires many times over.
A tiff with the Wright Co Board of Directors and John Molder about some of the side projects Wright was putting money into led to Wrights’ resignation. Wright decided that he wanted to change the hardware industry, through think tanks and expansive research even with the risk and potential loss’s it could cause. The company was called TekFwd, which produced the TekFwd Computer. The machine was a commercial washout but helped with future of micro-sized computing as well s connecting tech profits to the communities that were around his company locations. Wright returned to his original company after Wright Co acquired TekFwd in 1996, the company has only grown under Wright’s Guidance he will be missed by millions through out the world
